LearnServe International joined the Ron Brown Scholar Program in welcoming 90 student leaders from more than 40 area high schools last Friday to the 2011 Faces of Leadership Conference, held at Georgetown University.
Workshop leaders included LearnServe alumni Mary Sun and Sameen Yusuf, founders of NextGen Policy; Jessica Yang, founder of Kids Are Scientists Too; Melanie Barlow, founder of MicroMiracles; and Chandra Christmas-Rouse and Chinyere Ukaegbu, participants in Operation Understanding DC.
Participating high school students developed actions plans around the issues they plan to address in their schools and communities this coming year.
